A strengthening yet less extreme Atlantic-European jet during winter.
Article in Nature geoscience, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The Atlantic-European jet stream is a key driver of weather extremes in Europe, yet its recent variability and trends remain poorly understood. Here we investigate daily changes in jet strength, tilt and latitudinal extent from 1725 to 2100 using pressure data from four European stations alongside climate model simulations. These indices explain about 40% of day-to-day temperature variability in Western Europe year-round. Weather extremes-including heat waves, cold spells, heavy precipitation and windstorms-are closely linked to the jet stream, and the indices also capture signals of sudden stratospheric warmings and major solar storms. Since the pre-industrial period, the jet has strengthened by 0.13 standard deviations and shifted poleward during the cold season. Future projections indicate continued strengthening in winter, while extremes in the indices become less frequent, suggesting a potential reduction in some types of weather extremes.
